How many consecutive days can you receive a positive OPK?

[DandJ]

Never used OPKs before and my friend who used the Dollar Tree brand got a positive OPK and helped her conceive, so that's what I've been using. I've been only temping and casually checking my CM, but this is the first time I actually did an OPK and received a positive. My cycle is around 32-34 days long so I tested yesterday around 6pm (CD16) and got an immediate positive but unfortunately couldn't BD. So I tested again today around 11am (CD17) and another positive. So, my question is....

How many consecutive days can you receive a positive OPK before O? I'm still checking my CM which is wet and creamy, but have not temped regularly so I am not going off by that. According to my last year's temping pattern, I O'd on CD21... so was hoping if I BD'd tomorrow morning if I will still have a chance to catch the egg.

The image on the left is my first test and the second is today's test.

2 days is the most I've had positive OPKs for.

Good Luck!

I've had positive OPK's for 6 days before. I was told that meant I was trying to ovulate but wasn't succeeding. I think most people get them around 2-3 days normally though.

This is my first month using OPK's also, and I have had at least 4 days positive... What line is the LH line on yours, the left or the right??

It's the right line. See how they say "C" and "T" above them? Control and test. Hope that helps!

Wow, those are some positive dark lines then.. They say you usually O about 12-48 hours after a LH Surge... So if you DTD in the morning, you may catch the eggie, but it is always better to DTD about 2-3 days before and about 2-3 days after O. Good Luck!!
